This is The Collective! It's a collection of Anthony and Scott's favorite movies they own. When it's time to drink, get messed up, and time to enjoy a great movie with your friends which will make you laugh and talk all night these are the movies to watch. Each movie listed has a brief description and a quote from it at the end. The actual name "The Collective" comes from the movie Star Trek: First Contact which is in the collective and explained throughly in its section.
Snatch: The reigning champion of the collective. This movie is watched by myself (Scott) and Anthony most frequently because it's just so damn funny. There are numerous characters in the movie who each say something incredibly funny or weird that is just the funniest thing in the world for stoners everywhere. Featuring a cast of superstars including Brad Pitt, Benicio Del Toro, and numerous British stars the movie follows around a diamond that is stolen along with throwing in other side stories. Think of this as the British Pulp Fiction except much better and funnier. Our personal favorite scene is Bricktop saying a speech about feeding human body parts to pigs.
"Do You Know What Nemesis Means?"
Star Trek: First Contact Okay, okay it's Star Trek we know but have you seen this movie? We haven't watched one Star Trek show and aren't trekies or whatever those geeks are called but this movie is still incredible. Patrick Stewart is just stunning in how commanding he is over his troops as they face the Borgs. The Borg are cybernetic aliens who "assimilate" any species simply by touching them and taking over their minds. Once a person is assimilated they are a borg. Even more the borg all have one collective mind, so when you fight one, every borg in the universe knows your fighting it. It's Star Trek meets Matrix. The borg in the movie actually go back in time and assimilate the entire planet earth after the third World War around the time humans make "First Contact" with another alien species and only the Star Trek crew who follow the borg back in time can stop them. Plenty of action and messed up things that blow your mind. The borg call their population the Collective, and once you are assimilated you are part of the collective, thus the name of our movie collection and this section! Our favorite scene is Patrick Stewart going nuts on some borgs with a machine gun. Get extremely drunk and watch this scene, you will laugh your ass off.
"Captain, they've adapted!"
Jay and Slient Bob Strike Back: Now here is a stoner movie that'll make you laugh your ass off the entire time. Jay and Slient Bob who co-star in the previous View Askew collection of movies (Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma) finally get a movie of their own. Oddly enough the duo spend the movie trying to stop a movie adaption of their comic characters Bluntman and Chronic from hitting the big screen. As they head to Hollywood from New Jersey, Jay and Silent Bob find plenty of things to do throughout the movie including smokin' up in the Mystery Machine with Scooby Doo and friends, getting tips on hitch hiking from George Carlin, hooking up with some fine lesbians, and Stifler from American Pie. The movie is also filled with numerous cameos from big stars such as Ben Afflek, Matt Damon, Jon Stewart, and Judd Nelson along with co-stars like Will Ferrall and Shannon Elizabeth this movie has everything, sex, smoking, drinking, and lots of profanity. The DVD also has many deleted scenes and outakes which are longer than the movie and in some cases are even funnier. Great smokin' movie check it out.
"I am the master of the KLIT, not this fuck, none of you little fucks out there!"
Nothing to Lose: This is the best buddy comedy movie that nobody knows about. It stars Martin Lawerence and Tim Robbins. That's right Martin Lawerence of Bad Boys, National Security, and the Def Comedy Jam doing a movie with the lead character of The Shawshank Redemption, and it's a comedy. Robbins plays a rich marketing exec who finds his wife banging another guy when he comes home from work early and as he goes for a drive, Lawerence a out of work black guy from the ghetto tries car jacking him. Robbins locks him in the car and steps on the gas and yada yada yada, they end up in the Arizona desert. On the way back to their homes Robbins and Lawerence get into a car chase with a hick that has a double barreled shotgun while playing chicken with a cop. Have an encounter with two ruthless theives and a dance happy security guard, Robbins' feet are lit on fire after a spider finds it's way on top of his head and Lawerence is hung out to dry on the edge of a hotel balcony. All this while both rob a gas station, hardware store for flashlights, and Robbins' boss who he suspects as the wife fucker for $300,000. This is a buddy comedy that is not to be missed, and if you aren't laughing while Robbins is trying to put out his feet, you have no sense of humor.
"Give me all the money in the register and a Yohoo."
Blade II: One of the best sequels of all time, period. This was far better than the first one in terms of action, storyline, production, and overall funny ass shit. Movie starts with Blade rescuing Whistler who has been turned into a vampire and held captive. But as soon as Blade gets back to his new hideout in Prague, the show is stolen by his new sidekick. . Skid.
"No man it's SCUD, SCUD like in stud."
This fucker smokes a joint in every scene he’s in, says some of the funniest shit in the movie, and in the midst of hunt finds time to eat Krispy Kremes. The base of this movie finds Blade actually teaming up with an elite group of vampires known as The Blood Pack to take on a super race of Vampires called Reepers. These things are immune to silver and garlic leading to some amazing fight and action scenes. The plot only grows thicker as the move goes on with betrayals, vampire family ties, a lot of cool guns, and some alternative motives that will make you realize that as well as a great sequel this is the best vampire movie ever made, period.
Batman: The best comic book movie ever made. Val Kilmer and George Clooney take some notes form the only true Batman, Michael Keaton. This guy is Bruce Wayne and is Batman unlike the other two posers. And could they have picked a better person to play The Joker? No, Jack Nichealson was the perfect choice and they got him. He says some of the funniest one liners in the history of cinema and makes this action movie an action/comedy for his contributions alone. I really don’t have to explain the plot of this movie, because if you haven’t scene this movie you are too young to be viewing this website. Everyone has seen Batman, but see it again wasted for the first time. It makes the gothic scenes more gothic, the funny scenes funnier, and makes you realize just how good of a movie this was. This movies quality is only surpassed by it’s only real sequel Batman Returns.
"Gentlemen, let’s broaden our minds. . . Lawerence."
Batman Returns: This movie is also in the collective because it is that damn good. Danny DeVito steps up and plays the perfect second bad guy to the Joker. He plays just a good a Penguin as Jack played The Joker. The show stealer of this one however is Christopher Walken, who just plays himself with funny hair and funny suits. Of course Catwoman looking as good as she does doesn’t hurt, and the interaction between all three main characters and the chemistry they had made the movie amazing. Everyone has seen this movie to but see it again, for the first time because hearing what DeVito says as Penguin will make you shit your pants and the fight scenes are than much better than the ones in the first movie, which fucking kicked ass.
"Still, it could be worse, my nose could be gushing blood."
Half Baked: If your looking for a movie to smoke to, look no further. The name says it all and boy is there plenty of smoking going on. Now staring in Comedy Central's The Chappelle Show, Dave Chappelle plays the lead here along with his three pot smoking buddies Bryan, Scareface, and Kenny, and not to be forgotten comedian Steven Wright as The Guy On the Couch. Jim Breuer costars as Bryan in his only good movie role. One of their buddies, Kenny, is thrown in jail and the trio of buddies group together to bail him out. How do they plan to get the money, by selling weed! The movie includes big guest appearnces by Snoop Dogg, Jon Stewart, and even Willie Nelson all buying weed. Plenty of pot jokes in this movie so grab your own Billy Bong Thorton or Welsley Pipes and start watching.
"So you'all wanna smoke?"
Old School: You aren’t a man if you don’t like this movie. Where PCU and Van Wilder failed, this movie succeeded. This movie is the true second coming of Animal House despite attempts by the two predecessors just listed. This movie actually features real movie stars doing things you only imagine you’d see in movies while high or drunk. It features shit loads of drinking, petroleum jelly naked lesbian wrestling, a hilarious wedding reception, a gang bang setup, a chase scene with Master of Puppets playing in the background, and Will Ferrell who became an instant legend in this movie. He delivers the funniest performance in the history of cinema second to only John Belushi in Animal House. Sober or intoxicated this one of the funniest movies of all time and is a must see and a must own for anyone with a twig and two berries between their legs.
"Earmuffs!"
Super Troopers: This is the new Clerks/ Mallrats. An independent movie that has become a cult classic. Why is it a good movie to watch while intoxicated? Well the movie begins with three kids smoking weed and doing shrooms while driving down the highway, ends with the same kids having a kegger while doing acid at their house, and climaxes with all the cops getting shit faced drunk and spoiling a drug smuggling plot. Not to mention that the whole plot of the movie revolves around marijuana. The games the cops play on people when they pull them over, what Farva says, and how unserious the movie is makes this the perfect movie to watch if you’re high and just wanna laugh your ass off.
"I’ll have a . . . a liter of cola."
Tombstone: The best western movie made in the last twenty years, nuff said. Well not enough because this movie is awesome. From the gun scenes to card games, to the fights, and the one liners that are more plentiful than the bullets fired. This movie makes Kevin Costner and Dennis Quaid want to shoot themselves for making Wyatt Earp because even though it’s about the same people, Tombstone makes that movie look like a high school production. Val Kilmer’s Doc Holliday is one of the best and most arrogant characters in this history of film and every minute of it is some of the most entertaining stuff you’ll ever watch. And as arrogant and funny as Kilmer is that is as ballsy and intense as Kurt Russell is as Wyatt Earp. The plot is the Earps and Doc Holliday versus The Cowboys and all of the death, destruction, mayhem, and funny as hell one liners that ensue.
"I’m your Huckleberry."
